THE HONORABLE EMMET HORAN. An Appreciation 1 he man who regarded his selection and appointment to the State Board of Normal Regents as a commission from the citizens of Eau Claire to bring to this community a State Normal School. Accepting his appointment in that spirit, he never faltered, hut worked untiringly through the years. On October 18. 1916. after eight years of service on the Board, he had the satisfaction of presiding at the dedication ceremonies which marked the formal opening of Wisconsin’s ninth Normal School. The worth of his achievement is not yet fully realized but in the years to come, when the school has grown great, when its influence has spread throughout Wisconsin and the adjoining states, then will the people realize the greatness of this achievement and give all honor to Emmet Horan, friend of education and first Regent of the Eau Claire Normal School.
